I live in a neighborhood that has one of the worst reputations in this county. Not only because working class people live here..(thats poor people for this area)...but we have people that sell drugs in here. I have contacted the police about this problem, but they seem to have the idea that we should just deal with it. There is one residence in particular that really irritates me to no end. Not only are there anywhere from 7 to 11 people that stay in this two bedroom home at any given time....but the mother of a 15 year old girl does drugs with her daughter. The grandmother..(the one who actually rents the place) knows about all the drugs and filth comming and going from her home but is actually okay with it...as long as someone goes and gets her 500lb tale a hamburger or two or three. When I complain to the landlord...she says nothing that seems to matter. Seems to me that she should be responsible enough to get these low life people out of this area. When ever I ride past the place...I get yelled at and I occasionally get a certain finger thrown up at me. I have seriously thought of getting the grandmother charged with running an unruly house. I can't seem to figure out how to get the landlord to face her responsibilities yet....but I am working on that. May a nice letter to the editor of our local paper will open the eyes of some around here. Wish me luck! :)
